Mitsubishi RDT201WDL Widescreen DisplayLink LCD Monitor Hits Japan

Tweet

Mitsubishi have taken the warps off their first USB PC monitor to offer DisplayLink technology (facilitating multi-monitor computing via USB aimed particularly at notebook/laptop users), the Mitsubishi RDT201WDL, which offers a maximum screen resolution of 1680×1050 and which comes with integrated Ethernet connection and USB hub and which, according to Mitsubishi’s press release, ‘helps give mobile workers the visual workspace they need with next to no hassle’.

Apart from sporting DisplayLink technology, Mitsubishi’s RDT201WDL widescreen display also has some fairly sound green credentials thanks to the integration of an on-screen energy meter and no less that three levels of power consumption which ultimately culminates in the RDT201WDL purportedly utilising up to 36% less power that equivalent sized (unnamed) LCD displays.

Having just become available in Japan, there’s no word at the time of writing as to whether the Mitsubishi RDT201WDL monitor will see a wider international release though we personally wouldn’t bet against it (not least because the international market for ‘green’ displays is one that Mitsubishi can ill afford not to cash in on).
